Chita Rivera Memorial
We could try to tell you how much Chita Rivera meant to us. We’d rather show you. Here’s a gorgeous performance of “Winter/Love & Love Alone” from Kander & Ebb’s THE VISIT from the short-lived Stage Network series STUDIO SESSIONS, which HMS produced with Chita’s great friend and collaborator Michael Croiter. Most of you have never seen this before, and we think it’s a perfect way to say goodbye to this extraordinary artist and human.
Much love to all who are missing and mourning Ms. Rivera, and deep gratitude to her for all she brought to our lives.
